"I met Sybil, you know. She had a bit of a thing for me. I told her it wouldn't last, she said 'I know,' but then of course, she would."

The Fortune Teller: You knew Khan well?
Matthew Swift: Sort of.
The Fortune Teller: Former client?
Matthew Swift: He once read my future in the flight of a plastic bag. He derived the secrets of time in the patterns of vapour trails in the sky, or the drifting of scum on the surface of the canal. Sounded like a load of pretentious balls at the time, but I guess in retrospect...
The Fortune Teller: What did he tell you?
Matthew Swift: He said "Hey man, you're like, totally going to die."
Bob: Don't get your feathers in a fluff. I'm here to help! I can't let you have all the fun, can I?
Julius: What's fun about almost dying?
Bob: But that's the best sort of fun. The kind you can look back on centuries later and laugh about. Of course, since I'm always centuries ahead, I can laugh about it right now. [laughs loudly]

If you change the future, you change the past. The effects ripple outwards, up and down the timeline. The seeress is forced to see it all.

Claudia: Your visions... And what makes you so sure this Hunter would not turn against us?
Celestine: Fate brought him to this land for a reason. I wish I had the answers. But the Goddess gave me sight, not the wisdom to see the meanings.

"Perhaps no one has the answer as to what the nature of Aponia's ability is. But if we are merely puppets controlled by destiny, then she is a puppet, too. The only difference is that she can see the strings that bind everyone."
